Yossi Benayoun: Back at Stamford Bridge after West Ham loan spell

The midfielder has struggled with a knee injury this season that has curtailed his involvement at Upton Park.

Benayoun has been receiving treatment at Chelsea's Cobham training ground after appearing six times for the Hammers in the Premier League, the last of which came in their 1-0 win at Newcastle on 11 November.

The Israel international has played just 11 times for Chelsea since signing from Liverpool for £5m in July 2010 and spent last season on loan at Arsenal.
